Whatever happened to Chris Harris' BG V6 with full leather interior?

[Beefmeister]

I was just thinking back, and remembered that Chris Harris had a Black Gold Mk2 V6 as an Autocar Long termer a while ago.

Now the main difference was it had a full cream leather interior - a £1500 option IIRC. Not seen it anywhere since, so i wonder if it went on to be a renault UK car, or if its been sold/trashed/whatever.

Anyone have any clues? or if anyone ever paid the extra for the full leather?

Surely someone must know its whereabouts?

The ID leather was quite unique.

You could get on 172's in france too.

A part of the reg plate might jog peoples memory, as Tom said the ID leather is quite rare, let alone in cream.

I've only seen one with cream leather & that was a Lunar Grey one, it looked horrible.

Is this one deep bronze ??

Or is it actually Black gold & the lights making it look brown ?

Its bronze.

JR's car was *Whistles*.

You can go off people very quickly.

 

[Tom]

Was that a secret? s**t. sorry.

 

[Dash]

No I hate that damn picture. Wish I'd never seen it. You do have good taste though, so I'll let you off.

 

[Tom]

LOL!

It would show wear very quickly i reckon

 

[Beefmeister]

So nobody has any info on where Monkey's car went?

(after the brief thread tangent...)

 

[cat171]

Like I said, a part of the reg plate would be good.

 

[Beefmeister]

Ha! I knew there was a reason why i've kept all my Autocars every week back to 1992.....

I'll get back to this once i've found that Reg number...

 

[Floodie]

seem very keen on find out!... far more than "just thinking back..."
